Cook time15 min

Cook the beans in boiling water for 6-8 minutes (don’t overcook them).
Drain, rinse under running water, pat dry if necessary with some kitchen paper, transfer into a salad bowl and let cool (first at room temperature, then in the fridge).
To make the dressing, mince the garlic and the ginger. Wash and finely chop the parsley.
Transfer garlic, ginger and parsley into a bowl, add the lime juice, olive oil and salt and mix well. Keep in the fridge until ready to use.
Pour the dressing over the beans, add the poppy seeds, and mix it all together .
Check whether the dressing needs some extra olive oil.
Divide between serving plates and enjoy. This makes a great, light and flavourful side dish.
